5 Teams that Should Trade for Josh Gordan


Catufb85

Recommended Posts

Ive seen this article on multiple outlets but I find it interesting that they have us listed as one of the teams who should inquire about trading for Josh Gordon.  Based purely on talent and depending on what his value is to the Browns this would be a no brainer about a year ago when KB goes down.  As we all now the situation with both J. Gordon last year and our receiving corp.  As of this year, I feel that our WRs are one of the strength groups of our squad.  I give this a 0% chance of us even calling them on this.  We are having struggles determining who our 6th WR will be (If we carry 6)  Also, the fact that our Front Office wouldn't touch this with a 10 ft pole.  But can't help but to think our freaking dominating it would be to have KB, Funch, and Josh Gordon lining up on the ball with Cam, JStew, and Olsen as other options.

Give up an asset for an outsider with a phone book of criminal convictions or give up no assets for a brother with zero criminal convictions in a position of far greater need not to mention a far more difficult position to fill?

Lol I'm assuming this is Gordon vs Hardy. Curious as to what criminal convictions Gordon has besides a speeding ticket in Raleigh.

Pleading guilty to DWI magically becomes a speeding ticket?  Three failed drug tests and an arrest at two different schools in college alone.

That anyone still thinks Josh Gordon and his mystifying devotion to failing drug tests would be a good thing for this team is beyond confusing.  You guys sometimes.

How much good did Frank Alexander do us when he was sitting out constantly because he just couldn't manage to stop getting high long enough to pass a drug test?

He was arrested for speeding and DWI, I just forgot that it was both. You know what, thats my oversight I had kinda glossed over his transgressions in college because the charges were dropped from the 2010 incident.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
